Most rating sites report "35% proficient" for Sinclear Elementary and stop there. Here's what that number hides:
14.9% of students exceeded standard while 20.4% merely met it. That exceeded rate is 6.1 points below the state average of 21.0%. That's 3.8 points above the Ceres Unified district average of 11.1%. Compared to the 16 nearby schools within ~3 miles, this exceeded rate is 7.5 points higher (vs 7.3% average). The gap between "met" and "exceeded" is the difference between a school that clears the bar and one that raises it.

Chronic absenteeism is 11.3%, better than the state average of 18.7%.
